LONDON (Reuters) - [size=-1]England soccer captain David Beckham and his wife[/size]
[size=-1]Victoria ( photos ... :hump: ) [/size][size=-1]are to sue their ex-nanny over allegations about the state of their marriage made in a British tabloid newspaper, their spokesman said on Tuesday. The Real Madrid midfielder and his wife, who live in Madrid, took the decision after failing at the weekend to win a court order banning the News of the World from publishing an interview with former nanny Abbie Gibson, 27. "The Beckhams will be commencing legal proceedings against their former nanny, Abbie Gibson, for breach of confidence," the spokesman said. "They will also be applying to the courts to amend their outstanding action commenced last year against the News of the World to include all of these issues by way of seeking aggravated damages," he added. The Beckham's relationship came under close scrutiny last year following tabloid allegations that Beckham had had an affair with his personal assistant Rebecca Loos -- a claim the midfielder dismissed as "ludicrous." Beckham joined Real Madrid from Manchester United in 2003 to become one of the world's highest paid football players. In February, ex-Spice Girl Victoria gave birth to the couple's third son, Cruz.[/size]
